Religious Education:
To know you more clearly
Religious Education
at Sacred Heart Primary School
Religious Education is the core subject within our curriculum and influences all that we teach and enables us to develop the whole person. The ‘Come and See’ Religious Education Program (which has been written by the Liverpool Archdiocese) promotes children’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and prepares all pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of the present and the future. As well as this, promoting the Gospel Values of the Church also underpins everything we do and the ethos of the school.
Through religious education teaching and learning, we aim to:
Provide each child with the opportunity to develop their relationship with God.
Promote knowledge and understanding of Catholic faith and life.
Develop awareness and understanding of the impact of faith upon our daily lives.
Foster attitudes of respect towards all who live in our society.
Develop skills linked to the reflection upon and practice of religious belief.
‘To Know You More Clearly’
